	Graduate Integration Programme Overview In an increasingly dynamic world, our strained economy face the need to develop new entrepreneurs who can thrive in complex market environments, deliver innovative solutions, and serve a varied customer base. More jobs are being lost every day in the Nigerian market while a significant number of our graduates from various higher institution of learning find it hard to fill the available highly competitive positions. Research has proven that 2 basic requirements contribute most to the unemployment margin among Nigerian youths. These are; the lack of plurality of talents/employability skills in young people and the inadequacy of hands-on work experience usually required by employers, especially for fresh graduates. Now more than ever it is imperative to groom our graduates into capable young professionals The Curriculum GIP is a 72 hours intensive practical training spread over a period of 6 weeks using standard business school model of class delivery in the following spheres 1. Project Management 2. Entrepreneurship skills through the AEA School of Business 3. Business analysis and basic consulting skills 4. Employability development 5. Business field analysis 6. Market survey The uniqueness of GIP is in its model of outcome which is to ensure that all participants after due analysis are supported to start-up a business venture of their choice.
